alternatives
■ If you use an audio/video receiver, you can connect
the video cable to the de100c's video OUT jack and
to a video IN jack on your receiver. Audio and video
connections from the de100c must enter the receiver
within the same device group (for example, through an
AUX group).
■ If your TV does not have a composite video IN jack
available for use but another device in your system
(such as a VCR) does, you can connect the de100c to
that device's video IN jack. With this daisy-chained
method, the device the connection passes through must
be powered on when you use the de100c.
■ The de100c also has S-video and VGA connections.
To use one of these outputs, purchase the appropriate
cable separately.

If your router or home network requires an Ethernet
connection:
Connect one end of your Ethernet
cable to the de100c's Ethernet port.

your router (or to a networked
RJ45 jack in your home).

If you have a home phoneline network (your home is
networked to your router via telephone wire within
the walls):
